Beta OSCusage Command

We invite OSC clients to beta-test our new OSCusage command, which offers clients additional capabilities and data on usage. The command is available on all systems at /opt/osc/libexec/OSCusage. Please note this is currently in test mode and, hence, we cannot guarantee the accuracy of all the data it is reporting. Please contact OSC Help if you have any questions or find any issues with this command.

ROLLING REBOOTS OF OWENS CLUSTERS STARTING APRIL 16

We will have a rolling reboot of login and compute nodes of Owens cluster starting from Monday, April 16, 2018, to update its OS from RHEL 7.3 to 7.4. This rolling reboot won't affect any running jobs, but users may experience longer queue wait time than usual on the Owens cluster. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you. Please contact OSC Help if you have any questions.

However, now OSC provides all the toolboxes to all the academic users.
